We are well into the cool zone folks.
According to the Polk County Sheriff website, she's been released without charges.🤞https://www.polksheriff.org/inmate-profile/2435323
The website is wrong.
She'll have an arrest record now for that. That will stick with her. My wife was wrongfully arrested here in Florida and it sucks. The process to get it expunged is a pain in the ass. It costs you money. It takes FOREVER. You can only do it one time in your entire life here, no exceptions. She'll have to explain every single time she gets an apartment, a new job, the whole deal. It will suck.
Whew. Good. It's still messed up that she was ever in trouble for it
Hmmm...right, THAT’S terrorism. But putting 2 million people inside a huge ass ghetto and bombing them for over a year straight is somehow not. The liberal world truly is a miraculous place filled with endless wonders.
You can also write incel manifestos about killing every PoC and enslaving women then threaten to shoot up an elementary school but apparently that's fine because we have plenty of thoughts and prayers to hand out any time it happens.
The Feds have more important problems to deal with, like imprisoning people who make frustrated comments at insurance companies or who sabotage weapons factories supplying an ongoing genocide.
In case anyone was curious about the state of local journalism in this country, my friend works at a local news station in the area of this and sent me this text about it
some of the reporters are saying “you can’t yell fire in a crowded theater” in reference to the briana boston story
Which is one of the dumbest fucking things I’ve ever heard and is so very not relevant here. That doesn’t apply at all.
A more realistic comparison would be telling a worker at the theater “I hope someone burns this place to the ground” which is 100% legal, protected speech. As was what Briana Boston said.
Thing about yelling "fire" in a crowded theater is that it was first used in WWI as an argument for why people shouldn't be allowed to criticize the government.
If I were a lawyer I'd take all the Fox News clips of anchors and congressmen saying people should mow down peaceful protestors because they block traffic.
: “Don’t be silly, free speech only applies to the ‘right’ people!”
please change the post header. she's being charged, but hasn't been convicted or sentenced, yet. the maximum sentence she faces is 15 years, as i understand it, but she hasn't been "given" that.
I don't really know what to say other than that this pisses me the fuck off. I know i've said shit like this in the past and i know lots of people who've said shit like this. They're making her an example
The judge even says it openly!
A judge set her bond at $100,000, stating, “I do find that the bond of $100,000 is appropriate considering the status of our country at this point.”
That’s not a valid reason to set someone’s bail! You’re supposed to set bail based solely on “Are they likely to show up to court and are they likely to commit another crime”
Judge said “My friends at the last eyes wide shut party told me they were feeling very uncomfortable so now you get to be an example”
That is like a 'hey, don't do that' level of "crime". That's not an actionable threat, it's barely even a threat. Agreeing with the shooter doesn't mean you're also going to shoot a ceo. It's not illegal to want someone dead and express that sentiment.
It’s equivalent to telling an employee “I hope someone burns this place to the ground” which is absolutely legal
She's also a mother, I feel for those kids, what a joke this country is.
The only silver lining is those three kids now have the coolest, most badass mother in the entire school system.
Can’t stand how EASILY OFFENDED people are these days! Can’t they just take a joke?
Why is she getting punished for quoting insurance company process.
